| - I dislike this mall for a number of reasons. Parking can be a major pain in the ass sometimes, and some of their parking lots are creepy. The mall in itself is huge, making it pretty difficult to get from one end to the other, add a Saturday crowd to that matter and it is even more difficult. Personally some of the store they have that can only be found in Edmonton (Hollister, Abercrombie, Forever 21, etc.), I don't care for so that's not an appealing factor for me to go to this mall. Their fire drill seems to go off fairly frequently too, but you can't hear the announcement over the general sound of mall goers so there's this constant questioning of "Is this another drill, or should I really be running for my life right now?" Also, at Southcentre there is security constantly walking around, creating this sense of security, but you don't have that at Chinook so I wonder what happens in emergencies? Oh and there are far too few washrooms considering the size of the place (a complaint that can be made for every mall from Cross Iron to Southcentre).
What are my positives? I guess it is like a one stop shop. Wanna see a movie? Go bowling? Grab dinner... maybe some drinks? Do shopping? It can all be done in this one location that is easily accessible by road or transit! And it's a kind of central location so it isn't too difficult to access. Yeah... that's about it.
